Ex-LNWR 2-4-2T No 46757 is seen on a two-coach Stephenson Locomotive Society special visiting Harborne station on 3rd June 1950. The SLS society was one of a number of enthusiast groups who would charter trains to travel over 'goods' only routes or be hauled by the last locomotive of its class. In this instance the trip was organised because it was to many enthusiasts a 'goods' only line (the last passenger service had been some sixteen years earlier) and the locomotive which was allocated to Walsall shed was one of the few remaining class members.
